My wife picked-up a low mileage 2019 sport this past July.
She has commented that her 3 previous explorers sat "higher", had more ground clearance, and gave her a better view of the road (due to her 5'- 3" height).
Along with that, for winter driving, she likes to have studded tires all around (as we live in NH, USA).
So, this past week, we had new studded tires installed (and also went-up 1 tire size). I also had my tire guy install a Truxxx 102015-2.5" Front & 1.5" Rear Lift Kit. So, between the up-sized tires and the slight lift, there is a definite & noticeable difference. She likes the increased road height and the improved ground clearance.
